PROTO ENGINEERING INVESTMENT CASTING DESIGN ENGINEERING(CoNTD) View problems/issues through the eyes of the customer as well as the foundry, concentrating on part functional requirements for practical solutions. Note, the many years of airborne and aerospace design experience along with the association and actual foundry experience by proto Engineering, provides for this unique opportunity Provide for realistic tolerancing, dimensional set-up(datum's/tooling points)and proper transitioning to machining (kinematic type restraints, tooling lugs, etc. Determine those areas/features that should be cast and those that should be machined due to tolerancing or configuration limitations Recommend design techniques that minimize distortion when machined and those processes recommended for long term casting stabilization(critical optical configurations) Provide casting design, supporting analysis(FEA/NASTRAN), detail drawings(casting machining) and solid model( CAD)or variations as required. See the following for typical approach Discuss/establish design requirements, goals and gather the necessary interface/environmental data via"SCD or appropriate agreed upon format Provide preliminary design/layout of proposed approach for customer evaluation and subsequent update and approval. Note; FEA/NASTRAN analysis would be provided at this time if required by customer Provide detail casting and machining drawings (2D)on customer format per customer specifications and solid model (3D)as required of approved design
